Have you heard of a spiralizer?

I had never heard of this cool machine until my daughter told me about it and I got one and I have to say it is so cool!

It comes with 3 different blades that allow you to take….lets say an ordinary zucchini and spiralizer it! It makes noodles of all kinds of vegetables. I am just a beginner at using this but I hope to learn more about it while enjoying healthy fruits and veggies in a fun and unique way!

I made this zucchini spinach and tomato stir fry combo last night and everyone loved it. The noodles are quite long so next time I need to cut them up a bit but my nephews thought it was cool to slurrp the zucchini noodles up like spaghetti 🙂

First I took a couple handfuls of spinach and 1 green onion chopped and sautéed them in a pan with Olive oil. I sautéed until the spinach was wilted and green onions were transparent..about 2-3 minutes. Then I added in some grape tomatoes that I halved and sautéed them for a minute or two as well. Next I added a little finely chopped garlic and cooked another minute.

Next I added in my spiralizer zucchini noodles! I used about 3 small Zucchini’s, salt and pepper and sautéed them until they were cooked through but not soggy! I like my veggies to have a little crunch.

I chopped up a little basil and added that as well and used some for a little garnish and boom it was done! Really quick and yummy and fun to eat!

My daughter bought her spiralizer on Amazon…you can purchase yours.

 

 

Karins Kottage

Welcome to Karins Kottage! There is always something fun going on! You would think after becoming an empty nester couple that our nest would be very quiet and empty but our Kottage nest is usually more full than what we started out with! You might find me hosting a birthday party or graduation party and a baby shower on the same weekend or a big outdoor get together with 25 of our friends and family in the backyard or maybe I might be in the kitchen trying out a new recipe for my hubby and I to grill on the BBQ for a quiet night for the two of us. I am passionate about entertaining and setting a beautiful table! I may or may not have an addiction to cloth napkins and fun salad plates oh and goblets too! I think I will always have a home decorating DIY project in the works as long as my hubby is on board with me haha. We have painted A LOT in the 6 homes we have owned in the 35 years that we have been married as well as re-done multiple pieces of furniture, added wall and ceiling treatments, replaced lights, bathroom fixtures and even tiled floors! I have sewn what seems like a million window treatments for our home as well as for family, made slipcovers, and duvets and even a formal dress or two!
